"Peronno was evacuated by the
Hermans four.dnys ago. They occu
pied a strong position with hills be
hind and marshes In front. The
French received orders to tako the
position nt all costs, the reason oi
this order being that If the Germans
wero driven from hero they wouh'
ve enxeloped by the outspreading
French left wing.
"At ffrst the trenches were combed
out by artillery fire, but tho fiormnns
still held on and their guns on the
heights behind were doing execution
among the French. Then it was de
cided to storm the position.
"Across the marsh, In tho half light
before dawn, tho French troops ad
vanced In a number of narrow col
umns. Tlicy suffered badly, but nev
er wavered. The Germans wnlted
for them in tho trenches and thero
was a flece. deadly struggle, breast
to breast. The French had tho ad
vantage of dash nnd vigor and thev
stabbed until their arms ached.
Their losses wore heavy, but they
gained their point nnd tho Germans
fell bark to St. Qucnlln.
"Tho French were reinforced and
pursued the Germans hotly Into the
suburbs of the town. Thero woa
savage fighting in ,the streets, but
yard by yard they wero driven bac'
until they received orders to ubando.i
tho town. I hear that they are now
making an effort to re-take Peronno."

shqwed mure steadiness today than
at any tlmo since tho beginning of
tho war. Relief that export demand
would soon be forthcoming tended to
check any radical decline. On thto
other hand, thero appeared to bo no
immediate Incentive for any decided
expansion of speculative buying. Tho
opening, which varied from ?i of to
; up, was followed by a slight ad
vance and then by trifling setback.
Selling by pit traders weakened
corn. Favorable weather was tho In
centive of tho beam. After starting

sagged still further and rallies wero
